Luke 24:27-39
New American Standard Bible
28And they approached the village where they were going, and He gave the impression that He was going farther.
29And so they strongly urged Him, saying, 'Stay with us, for it is getting toward evening, and the day is now nearly over.' So He went in to stay with them.
30And it came about, when He had reclined at the table with them, that He took the bread and blessed it, and He broke it and began giving it to them.
31And then their eyes were opened and they recognized Him; and He vanished from their sight.
32They said to one another, 'Were our hearts not burning within us when He was speaking to us on the road, while He was explaining the Scriptures to us?'
33And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together and those who were with them,
34saying, 'The Lord has really risen and has appeared to Simon!'
35They began to relate their experiences on the road, and how He was recognized by them at the breaking of the bread.
36Now while they were telling these things, Jesus Himself suddenly stood in their midst and *said to them, 'Peace be to you.'
37But they were startled and frightened, and thought that they were looking at a spirit.
38And He said to them, 'Why are you frightened, and why are doubts arising in your hearts?
39See My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; touch Me and see, because a spirit does not have flesh and bones as you plainly see that I have.'
King James Version
Chapter 24
27And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself. 28And they drew nigh unto the village, whither they went: and he made as though he would have gone further. 29But they constrained him, saying, Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent. And he went in to tarry with them. 30And it came to pass, as he sat at meat with them, he took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. 31And their eyes were opened, and they knew him; and he vanished out of their sight. 32And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? 33And they rose up the same hour, and returned to Jerusalem, and found the eleven gathered together, and them that were with them, 34Saying, The Lord is risen indeed, and hath appeared to Simon. 35And they told what things were done in the way, and how he was known of them in breaking of bread.
36And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.
37But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit.
38And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts?
39Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have.

28They came near the village where they were going, and he gave the impression that he was going farther.
29But they urged him, "Stay with us, because it's almost evening, and now the day is almost over." So he went in to stay with them.
30It was as he reclined at the table with them that he took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.
31Then their eyes were opened, and they recognized him, but he disappeared from their sight.
32They said to each other, "Weren't our hearts burning within us while he was talking with us on the road and explaining the Scriptures to us? "
33That very hour they got up and returned to Jerusalem. They found the Eleven and those with them gathered together,
34who said, "The Lord has truly been raised and has appeared to Simon! "
35Then they began to describe what had happened on the road and how he was made known to them in the breaking of the bread.
36As they were saying these things, he himself stood in their midst. He said to them, "Peace to you! "
37But they were startled and terrified and thought they were seeing a ghost.
38"Why are you troubled? " he asked them. "And why do doubts arise in your hearts?
39Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself! Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have."
New Living Translation
28By this time they were nearing Emmaus and the end of their journey. Jesus acted as if he were going on,
29but they begged him, 'Stay the night with us, since it is getting late.' So he went home with them.
30As they sat down to eat, he took the bread and blessed it. Then he broke it and gave it to them.
31Suddenly, their eyes were opened, and they recognized him. And at that moment he disappeared!
32They said to each other, 'Didn’t our hearts burn within us as he talked with us on the road and explained the Scriptures to us?'
33And within the hour they were on their way back to Jerusalem. There they found the eleven disciples and the others who had gathered with them,
34who said, 'The Lord has really risen! He appeared to Peter. '
35Then the two from Emmaus told their story of how Jesus had appeared to them as they were walking along the road, and how they had recognized him as he was breaking the bread.
36And just as they were telling about it, Jesus himself was suddenly standing there among them. 'Peace be with you,' he said.
37But the whole group was startled and frightened, thinking they were seeing a ghost!
